Hi all

I'm currently doing my bathroom and have taken all the tiles off (It was completely tiled).

Some came off a lot easier than others and many have taken chunks of bonding plaster as well as skim (see photos).

The main bath wall had what looked like two layers of bonding coat and a square in the middle that appears to be skim, confusing?.

What I want to know is, can I stabalise these walls without the need to knock off all plaster back to brick? The bath wall seems quite solid, I was hoping I could use tile backer on the bath walls and then patch bonding plaster for the others and then skim?

Your help is appreciated!

Thanks
